Chances of building on green belt?
Discussion
I know someone who is selling just under 2 acres of green belt.
He has been using it for storing building materials on and it generally looks a state, there's an old caravan, a tractor, a jcb and loads of st, along with 3 containers.
He had a prohibition notice put on him.
He applied for planning for stables and also for the containers to 'store' hay. Planning for this has been granted.
Anyway. He has wanted to sell the land for a while now, he wants 150k as now he thinks planning for a house or houses will be given easier.
To note there is several property's to each side of the field. Along with various other new builds down the same road. A house would vastly improve the place.
Is this a likely proposition?

So looks like a resounding now then.
Strikes me as odd some of these planning laws. I do get it, not wanting people to build all over the countryside, but this place would be of benefit IMO, it looks st, it always will look st and there's properties either side anyway.
There's even a driveway with huge metal gates leading up to the hardstanding (which they told him to remove before allowing the stables).
He's always wanted loads of money for it, he's been offered 70k before any planning for the stables, he refused it.

do you need planning permission for stables?
I'm not sure what you need, but I do know that he applied for ten stables and eventually got permission for two, along with 2 containers allowed to be kept along with the hard standing he put down.Think green belt: nice green field
Think this place: think steptoes yard.
